Wrong On Republican "Cooperation"

Gov. Bob McDonnell:

We want results, not rhetoric. We want cooperation, not partisanship.
There is much common ground. [McDonnell Prepared Remarks, 1/27/10]

Republicans Have Shown Absolutely NO Interest In "Cooperation" Or "Results":
Michael Steele, 12/10/09: "The Democrats have accused us of trying to delay, stall, slow down, and stop this bill...They are right. We do want to delay, stall, slow down, and ultimately stop them from experimenting on our nation's health care."
Sen. Jim DeMint, 7/17/09: "If we're able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo, it will break him."
Sen. Chuck Grassley, 7/6/09: "'I take pride with being an obstructionist,' he said, if that means scuttling a public option that could lead to a single-payer system."
Sen. Chuck Grassley, 9/1/09: "The only way to get a bipartisan agreement is to defeat a Democratic proposal."
Rep. Steve King, 8/25/09: "I think it's time to really slow down or stop the negotiations with the Democrats."
